A mini rant really....
Desperate for work and friend of friend is employed at venue quite local to me. She had her interview at the venue too. As they're recruiting again, I gave them a call.
Spoke to a woman who said yes they'd love to see me.. but could only come when she is based (two counties away) and around her school runs (odd thing to say, if you are running a professional company ? re school runs I mean...) because 'the traffic is bad'.
Said she'd email me the details after put phone down. She didn't.
Six days later, the day before the interview (ie today) I rang and asked for the email or details. She was unable to speak due to where she was today, and said she'd email me around 10 tonight with the details.
Trouble is I have no idea where I'm going (town/area), only the county. I know I''ll have to leave early and get the early morning traffic and obviously that's not their fault and their choice as to when to see me. But I can't plan without knowing where I'm going! I mean is it the near side to me or furthest.. and that time of day.. could be anything from (my rough estimate based on driving through that county before) 1.5 - 3 hours, more if traffic is gridlocked.
I would say is it worth it.. as I do know it's ad hoc (that means zero hours contract, right??) now and then weekend work, minimum wage. I'm desperate though.
I just wish I could plan my journey!
Just seems a bit vague and flakey to me
